You also need to ensure that you measure the outer dimensions of a piece of furniture - when you are limited for space, it is the outer dimensions that are going to be the important ones. It is as well to remember that whatever the outer measurements of your armchair are, the interior measurements are going to be smaller - so make sure you will have enough room to actually be comfortable when sitting in the armchair.

Swivel armchairs come in several different styles, one for the home, which tend to be larger and one for the office. The standard office versions come with several different features, such as those mentioned already as well as two arm rests; depending on the model you may be able to lift or lower the arm rests to provide your arms with support after several hours of typing. The standard seats are covered in fabric, though you could pay more for a water resistant cover to prevent sweat from being absorbed into the cushions and creating a smell. When buying a swivel armchair, check whether it has specially designed padding, which is shaped to follow the contours of your back giving you extra support.
